Product-Information:
Vivaldi's only surviving oratorio here receives a rare recording, and this stunning performance (recorded after a London concert, and the only truly 'authentic' version available) is sure to become the definitive version for years to come.
The work was written for the Pietà, the famous girls' orphanage in Venice where Vivaldi was Music Director and for which much of his music was composed, and with an almost unlimited range of instruments and instrumentalists at his disposal Vivaldi truly indulged his fondness for instrumental colour—throughout the many arias, the all-female cast are accompanied variously by chalumeau, early clarinets, viole all'inglese, viola d'amore and four theorbos, in addition to the instruments of the expected baroque orchestra.
Though the extant work opens with a rousing and virtuosic chorus, in this performance Robert King prefaces it with the first two movements of Vivaldi's colourful Concerto (RV555) as it is certain the work would have commenced with an overture, now lost.
Rezensionen
'Lyricism in abundance and some truly extraordinary scoring. Robert King's direction revels in such novelties and he has a skillful team of players to realise the ravishing beauties of the score' (The Times)
'A stunning cast, orchestra and choir' (BBC Music magazine)
'Hugely enjoyable … excellent soloists…masterly recording' (Classic CD)
'A wonderful piece of dramatic music that receives superb treatment at the hands of The King's Consort and soloists. An absolutely vital release and one of the best recordings I've heard this year' (American Record Guide)
Rezensionen
I. Allihn in FonoForum 9/98: "Eine in jeder Beziehung vorbildliche Einspielung: ausnahmslos brillant in der musikalischen Besetzung, perfekt unter aufführungs- praktischen Gesichtspunkten, ausgestattet mit einem sehr informativen viersprachigen Begleittext und eben- falls viersprachigem Textabdruck. Hervorzuheben ist die fabelhafte Textverständlichkeit, sind die ausgefeilten klanglichen Finessen und das einfühlsame Miteinander von instrumentalem und vokalem Part. Eine Referenz- einspielung."- Tracklisting
